Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of air drying equipment, and more specifically, to a double-sided printing air drying equipment. Background Art
[0002] Digital printing is printing using digital technology. Digital printing technology is a high-tech product integrating machinery, computer, and electronic information technology that has gradually formed with the continuous development of computer technology. For fabrics with double-sided printing, if not dried in time, it is easy for the prints to stick together and affect the overall printing effect. Currently, the air drying equipment mainly uses air flow to blow onto the surface of the fabric for drying. However, the air flow directly blowing onto the fabric surface cannot be too large, otherwise it will damage the printing quality. As a result, the air flow blowing onto the fabric surface is relatively small, and a longer air drying material path needs to be arranged, resulting in a slower drying efficiency of the printed fabric.
